Agenda summary

The Lexington-Fayette Urban County Board of Adjustment will meet on August 11, 2025, at 1:30 p.m. in Council Chambers to consider zoning variances, conditional use permits, and short-term rental requests.

Billboard height and setback variances at 1200 Winchester Road: Staff recommends approval of a 5-foot height increase (to 45 feet) but disapproval of reducing the setback from a residential zone from 150 feet to 70 feet.
Driveway and setback variances at 2208 Harrodsburg Road: Staff recommends approval of lesser variances to allow safer vehicle turning on a major arterial roadway with over 32,000 daily vehicles.
Front yard setback variance at 236 Race Street within the Infill and Redevelopment Area: Staff recommends approval as the proposed setback is consistent with surrounding structures.
Multiple residential variances recommended for disapproval: Cases at 234 Glendover Road, 340 Hart Road, 608 Autumn Lane, and 1368 Deer Lake Circle lack sufficient justification and would alter neighborhood character.
Conditional use permit for Kentucky Training Center at 3380 Paris Pike: Staff recommends approval to replace and convert an accessory structure for a food pantry and laundry limited to employee use.
Short-term rental permits: Staff recommends approval for un-hosted rentals at 3853 Plantation Drive and 225 Floral Park, and disapproval at 605 Lane Allen Road due to concentration of existing rentals in the area.

All variance appeals, conditional use requests, and short-term rental applications listed will include public hearings where applicants and objectors may speak after being sworn in.
